Because this notice was filed on August 6, 2007, the earliest the transaction could be consummated is September 5, 2007 (30 days after the exemption was filed). The purpose of the trackage rights is to allow the parties to achieve operating economies and provide improved service on the line through NSR’s operation of its trains, locomotives, cars and equipment with its own crews, in its own account, to access CWRY’s Marshalling Yard and related main line trackage for the purpose of interchange of railcars between NSR and CWRY. NSR will not perform any local freight service on the line. CWRY currently leases the line from NSR.2 ebenthall on PRODPC61 with NOTICES 1 A redacted draft version of the trackage rights agreement between CWRY and NSR was filed with the notice of exemption.

If the notice contains false or misleading information, the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) may be filed at any time. The filing of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the effectiveness of the exemption. Stay petitions must be filed by August 29, 2007 (at least 7 days before the exemption becomes effective). An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB Finance Docket No. 35067, must be filed with the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423– 0001.
